PayPal promoted Hill Ferguson, former chief of the firm’s Mobile team, to lead the company’s Global Product team.
Ferguson has worked closely with PayPal President David Marcus for years, including a period where both served on the leadership at Zong. He has also founded several companies, including LoanBack and Moneycard Financial; is the former general manager for Yodlee; and helped develop Yahoo’s finance offering.
On the Mobile team, Ferguson helped develop both PayPal Here, and the firm’s Mobile Check In API, a blog post explains.
